Lena looked up, her eyes turning to slits.
"Okay." She said slowly. "I can't just give up sex..." She stopped, but restarted again, hoping the woman was as helpful as she seemed, and that Lena could trust her. "It's just...I have my needs...and...apparently...I have a fear of commitment." She said in a small voice. "I just, can't handle staying with the same guy, they're so horrible! Being with them doesn't feel right, I know that much, but it relieves my tensions more than my hand..." She looked down. "Sorry, you probably don't want me to dish this all to you. You probably have far more problems to deal with." Lena cocked an eyebrow towards the living room, watching Theresa's hand run across the page, and Alex's mouth open ever so slightly to correct her fery few mistakes.
Lena couldn't help but suppress a laugh, despite the serious conversation she had gotten into.
